The New Year is almost here and it always brings a smile to my face once the bell has stopped ringing and we have made our New Year’s resolutions about the things we are going to change in our lives. I recall the times I have made New Year’s resolutions and how in a few days that promise was broken. However, on the odd occasion when I have actually fulfilled a promise, it has also brought about a change or improvement to my life. A promise I keep for myself for this year is that I will do everything I can to play my part in realizing my destiny. It is my thoughts and actions that create my future, as well as what level of commitment I am prepared to offer.

Very often people come to people like me because they want to hear about their future, that everything will be okay and that we will meet success and happiness. The most exciting thing for me is the coming of each new day. How will I react with each new challenge or obstacle that life presents me with? The interesting thing is I will never know until I am there. I believe that what we do with each new day creates the future. Yes, I believe in destiny, but I also believe that we have to assist in fulfilling that destiny by being responsible for ourselves. In my own life there are not many opportunities to just sit on the sofa and do nothing, but on reflection I realize, if my life was simple and straight forward all the time I would be bored. There would be nothing to challenge me and if I did not have these challenges or purposes my life would sink into a form a mediocrity. The most exciting thing about life is that you never know what is lying around the corner awaiting you.

Sometimes I think it would be nice to take three months off, go to a tropical island, roam the beaches and enjoy the time, but after a short period I would become restless, because that is my nature. I need both, the stimulus that life can offer as well as time to relax, like with this Christmas that has just passed. It is nice to drink and eat good food, go for a nice walk, read a good book and maybe watch a movie. We all need those times to allow the voice of our spirit catch up with us. We cannot live life in the fast lane all the time, but sometimes it is exciting. The human spirit without challenges or obstacles can go into a semi-permanent state of hibernation, but the key is in finding the balance between accepting the challenges and giving our soul the time to catch up with us.

This blog of mine has certainly become a good companion to have as I navigate my life’s pathway day by day. I love to share my thoughts and theories about life with others, you never know what response you are going to get.

My wish for all of you is that this new year will bring you nearer to yourself, nearer to peace and contentment and the joy of learning more about yourself.

First I would like to bring you up to date with my visit to China, and it can only be described in these words: It was a revelation. Both on a personal level and with my professional work it was the biggest breakthrough I have made in the last 20 years. The realizations were seemingly endless. My time in China gave me a very clear direction on how I hope to be working in the future, and at the same time I received confirmation from the world of spirit on how they one day in the future hope to apply this material that we are putting together in the research, with the purpose of creating a scientific model that will bring spirituality and science together.

Again we used the Mountain Meditation, with all the keys that it offers to open new doors, as a foundation for this research. It proved to be successful in giving us insights into how a human being can raise the level of their own consciousness. Much of the data still needs to be analyzed, but what we can see at the moment appears to be very promising. At this point I cannot offer more detail, because with research there is a code of silence until findings actually can be proven. I will update you step by step.

The Christmas season is upon us so I would like to take the opportunity to thank you all for the input and the time you have given to this blog. This has been another revelation for me both on a personal and a professional level. Once again it shows me the power of the written word. My wish with every article I have written on this blog is that it has touched a special place within you, that it has helped you have your own realizations and encouraged you to move forward, to find a truth that works for you.

It has been amazing how many of you that have said: “Ah, I was thinking the same thing” or “You have really helped me”. Since beginning with the blog You have helped me when I in my first article wrote: “Come and tell your story, there is no need for you to stand alone anymore.” All of you that have come into the blog and shared your comments, all of you following the blog, have given invaluable contributions. The support you have given has helped me realize how important it is when we believe in something, to have people to share our thoughts and ideas with. You have given this blog a dynamic that I never believed possible. Every one of you is this blog. It is not just about Terry Evans, it is your place too; a place to visit from time to time, where we can come together.

Christmas is fast approaching, with just a few shopping-days remaining. It brings to mind the true essence of Christmas, the child born in a stable. What humble beginnings. A story that has lasted for 2000 years, which reminds me of a quote from the bible: “Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.” Many of you have shown these aspects within yourselves with what you have written. I thank you and I wish, wherever you may be or whoever you are sharing Christmas with, that you experience the love of your family or friends and enjoy every moment of the spirit of Christmas.

May the words that I have offered you give you renewed strength and a purpose for the coming new year as you continue following your pathway.

I recently had a request by two fourteen year old school girls, if they could come to Fanthyttan and interview me. They were involved in a school project creating a documentary on mediumship together with three other students. Schoolchildren have approached me wanting to do interviews for their school projects and so on before, but it was still very touching that they wanted to talk to me.

They arrived shy, smiling and somewhat nervous, but full of enthusiasm and curiosity. It was refreshing to meet their open minded attitude and they asked some very good questions. The interest and the enthusiasm the young have for these things are amazing; at the same time they can sometimes be a little nervous and scared of.

Last summer we had a visit from a whole group of teenage schoolchildren, who were doing a special summer project, accompanied by two of their teachers. They were travelling around Sweden visiting places known for supernatural phenomenon, so they phoned and asked if they could stop off at Fanthyttan and talk to me. We invited them for lunch and a chat. They arrive looking somewhat nervous. Some of the guys pretended to be nonchalant, but was at the same time very curious. We had a great afternoon, talking and laughing a lot. They asked endless questions and shared their experiences; they proved to be quite knowledgeable. It was a memorable day.

Before leaving they told me that their next stop would be an old haunted prison where they would spend the night. Sometime later we received an e-mail from one of their teachers who accompanied them. He told us about the overnight stay at the prison, the morning after some of the students were found doubled up in their beds, too afraid to sleep on their own. It made me laugh, remembering the bravado I myself had about entering haunted houses as a young person. However, it would quickly disappear and transform into apprehension as I awaited the phantoms of the night to appear.

For almost every young person that have contacted me for interviews and the alike there is a genuine interest in wanting to understand paranormal activity and why it exists. Many of these young people want to learn to manage their own experiences and learn not to be afraid of them. I keep being met by the same questions: “How does it work?” “What happens?” They are our future, and how far will their consciousness have developed in 30 years’ time? I am almost certain that they will be much more developed than me.

It was 1991 and I had recently moved from Iceland to Örebro. As I was opening up one morning to work with private readings I heard an old familiar whisper: “Terry, we want to show you something in the future.” They showed me a school and said: “One day you are going to have a school not so far from Örebro. It will take about 20 people.” As they gave me this vision I understood what they meant, but at the time it felt like it was something far beyond my capability. So I decided to put it on a shelf in my memory bank and continued to go about my daily business working with my mediumship.

A couple of years later one of my students said: “Terry, perhaps you should buy an old village school one day?” It seemed an interesting thought, but again I just put it into the archives of my mind. At the same time I had a wish to create something that would give my guests a feeling of security and a sense of belonging, but I could never put my finger on what it was I had to do.

In a practical way it was much easier to rent a place just for a few days and then move on, but then it came to the point where I had been travelling around Sweden so much for so many years that I was weary of travelling. I needed to find something where I could consolidate my work and the message I was trying to convey, but I had not even dared thinking about buying my own place.

Then one evening spirit said: “Time to buy your own place.” A feeling of panic came over me. However, I started looking for a course centre. For about a year I was looking everywhere for a suitable place, but none were to be found. The problem was my ego or my attitude. I had this idealistic picture of how everything should look and be. One day a friend of mine told me about this old village school that was up for sale, about 55 kilometres north of Örebro. Accompanied by my friend I went off to look at this place, but it did not meet my requirements or this idealistic picture that I had. I told the owner I was not interested.

A couple of weeks passed and spirit started whispering to me again: ”The old village school is your place, Terry.” Then slowly I began to realise that this picture I had created within did not exist. After two or three months I called the owner again and asked: “Have you sold the school?” To which she replied: “Yes I have sold it to two English women that are going to start a meditation centre.” I was really annoyed. That place was meant for me! Anyway, I continued my search to no avail. The months went by, but spirit continued to assure me that the school would be mine. Sometime later I received a phone call from the owner: “The school is back on the market, are you interested?“ I bought the school.

When the decision had been made spirit said: “You wanted to find a place that you could give a personal touch, but you were so stubborn in your mind-set and with your demands that we almost gave up hope. This is the perfect place for you.”

Today I have given the old village school my personal touch and I continue to strive to create a better place. That is an on-going process for me. Every time I have made the wrong turn or a mistake spirit have always stepped in and put me back on track. My personnel have also helped me by giving their advice. I hear these words: “Terry, I have an idea!” or “Terry, I think we should do this.” or “Terry, you are stuck in a mind-set!” Often their ideas are better than my own. We are a team. Naturally we have our disputes and disagreements, but that is an important part of the process.

We hope to continue developing the personal touch to those that come to visit us at the old village school in the village of Fanthyttan.
